which design/architecture magazine(s) do you like most and why?
don't you think that all magazines share the same content and what differentiate between good and bad is just the way of presentation...

i like brutus, think it's quite original.

hihi clerk,
brutus is really good, actually many japanese magazines are very nice too...
i found a free magazine in stockholm called "RODEO", it's really nice i like it so much =)

thx neuarmy,
esopus is very nice, i have not seen it before (and i dun think we have it in hk too). i'd propably order one in the web (although the mailing cost so much...)
magazines (and other printing matters) are always important!

im getting tired of seeing the same shit in all the 'cool artsy' mags
gimme something different, please
- norika0
so nick what do you expect? what so you mean by "something different"?

apple?

something different > something that is not trendy, something that does not belong to a cool "scene", something that features people who are actually creating meaningful and inspiring work.
or, just something completely different conceptually... i had an idea which i thought was kind of cool that i'll share to give you an example; ask 100 people to find 100 pages in a magazine which evoke real emotions in them, and then get them to write, scribble and draw all over whatever page they've chosen with their commentary about whatever they've found on that page... and then scan in all those pages and print that as a magazine.
good writing helps too.

but for real, right now i got subscriptions to dwell, surface and colors.
WAD is also quite nice, as is ready made. juxtapose used to be pretty good, but now it's like 60% ads...actually almost all design mags nowadays are mostly ads.

sorry, i meant ask 100 people to find 1 page each.. not 100 pages.. hehe :)
- lvl_130
well...we got 100 people here! let's get that shit started.
- ********0
too bad the 100 ppl we got here aint got shit to say.
[please excuse my pessimism]
- lvl_130
nah dude, there are a lot of people here that got something to say. i'm serious, lets get shit started.
- norika0
good idea! let me think..
